I’m trying to find a way to refute this, but I cannot.

It doesn’t need to be fully watertight. The rate of water passing into the dry area only needs to be lower than the rate you can pump it out.

Its a misconception that fluid means liquid. A fluid is a substance that has no fixed geometry, and conforms to the environment around it.
